... tomorrow they would have a press statement saying the Satoshi story was incorrect but it isn't their fault due to a fact malleability bug.

The "attach answer number 2 to question number 1" malleability "bug"* in journalism that has been around for decades.



*like someone posted in another thread. For all it's worth I've been a victim of this bug in the past. It's alive and well.
